@av8r76:
I thought the only positive thing about SG was the pay and decent flying hrs. Could you please tell me what is a typical F/O pay like. I have come across trainees who recently joined on the 737 who claim a F/O can make about 2.5 - 2.7 lakhs per month.

@av8r76Atleast you got in....but sorry for those who could not make it till now.
I know it would be rude to ask you but do you know whats gonna happen to those who got at the time of Sultan and some at the time of Pilot couple's?
Just heard that those pilots are on the move specially those got in at the time of 2009 ...is it true?
And of course whats the pay for F/O and bond limitations?

2.5 was 4 years ago. Now it's about 1.4-1.5. As of now HR has imposed a multitude of salary options. Some guys are bonded AND having trainingcosts deducted, go figure that one. Some are TR'ed with a 5 yr bond. Some guys don't have any bonds. It all changes batch to batch. Kinda gives you an idea of the adhocism here.
Rest assured, you will be treated poorly by HR, admin, rostering at every step so leave your ego out of this or else you will be pounded to pulp. This place is demoralizing.
Rostering will make you do some crazy stuff bordering on illegal to get their flights out. They once told my fo not to worry about fdtls as dgca doesn't care about this kinda stuff. I had to call on his behalf to sort them out in my own fashion.
So, in one sentence, pay is crap, so is the flying. Being treated poorly comes as a perk. Now you tell me why anyone would want to join this joke. I realize things are bad so you can't really cherry pick your first job, but guys should really give this airline a miss if they have that luxury. Or else see on the line soon so I can tell you personally I told you so.

Just like as an fo I used to say my captain. Work as a team, hence the camaraderie. Fly much do ya?
On the flip how would you describe it? Stick to the subject fs player or that's pretty much be the only thing you'll end up flying.

No Type-Rating exam as of now
I came to understand that, SG has already recruited CPL pilots for 737, some 20ppl has already paid hefty amount for training as well as for inside jugaad, hence these ppl will be there for utilisation after for sometime. Next recruitment god knows. Though management is new and capable, but the recruitment is in the hands of few, who are just selling the seats backdoor. Spicejet is goin in loss due to improper mobilisation of resources and they lack in maximum utilisation of planes.
Though market is filled with 737 Type-Rated pilots, but they hired CPL holders, for their immediate requirement. Now we can easily compare the recruitment startegies of SPICEJET AND INDIGO, Though Indigo came out with CAE program, but for the immediate requirement they started recruiting the Typerated pilots and using the Aircrafts to maximum extent, thats why they are in profit, and SPICEJET is goin in loss.
Anyhow by this recruitment someone in Spicejet has filled his pocket full.

SpiceJet adrift as pilots, cabin crew jump ship - Hindustan Times
Guys I realize you are desperate. But do not sell your soul to this airline. As I have said before. Stay away like the plague. You have been warned.

SPICE LOSING ITS FLAVOR
Inside Sources, It is true, Spicejet has serious internal issues that need to be sorted out, there is no proper co-ordination and co-operation among the top managements (CEO, COO & Flight Opns.). They need to review and revamp the existing policies as per the market, further they lack motivation and team spirit, because top management works for their own profits and not for the betterment of the company.
Recruitment part : Ailing airline needs to fill the gap of attrition immediately, arrest the cancellations of flights due to non-availability of manpower, MAJOR flaw is in the part of Flight Opns. CPL holders been recruited and been sent for typerating training, when they need pilots for immediate requirement, though market is filled with lot of Typerated pilots, Flight Opns ppl prefer to go for CPL holders. Reason is CPL holders can pay more commission to these ppl, for fetching job, than the TypeRated ones. For filling their pockets they are murdering the well-managed airline.

Is it true that spicejet is starting a new TFO's batch of non-type rated pilots this month for 737. If yes, can someone put some light on this. I mean who these students are and have they undergone any written test and interview or not. Also I heard spicejet is planning to conduct a written exam soon....true?
